> Why do you think copyright has anything to do with the post?

Because the Digital Millenium Copyright Act is for copyright. You haven't stated how the blog post infringes upon BK's copyright at all, so... yes, seems like a standard fraudulent DMCA claim.

> First thing first. This is NOT DMCA abuse. The DMCA is the only way to communicate with web companies and take down content. As such, it has become the legitimate way to take down any content that needs to be taken down, in the absence of alternatives.

This assumes that companies should be able to take down any content they do not like. This is very much not the case. The DMCA is very specifically only for copyrighted content.

From copyright.gov[1]:

> To be effective, a notice must contain substantially the following information:

> ...

> (v) a statement that the person sending the notice has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and

> (vi) a statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the person sending the notice is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner .

This is pretty clearly DMCA abuse. TFA isn't using any of BK's copyrighted content, which is what a DMCA claim alleges. Just because people have abused the form... pretty much since inception does not mean that it's not perjury to do so.

If BK wants to press charges for unauthorized usage of computer systems, that's another route. This would involve a police report, not perjury, and would probably not take down the website.

Looks like a good start. A few notes:

- The first thing on the "features" list should be something that other compilers cannot do. Esthetics (maybe just say "DX"?) is a nice to have - sometimes VERY nice to have - but should not be positioned as the most important item.

As the original post says the alternatives have poor ESM support - that's a good differentiator.

- Even though ES Modules are part of the ECMAScript standard, having a header stating "(Partial) Support for ECMAScript"- to me, at least - indicates the project does not support base JS features, not that ESM imports have problems. Maybe say "improved ESM support"?

- Docs seem a little bare. For example, the Usage section says:

    # Preinstall Node.js on the target machine
    astra install
Which machine is the "target" machine? I would assume, in the context of compiling, that the target would be the machine you are compiling for... but installing software remotely seems out of scope. Does it install it locally, or swap the bundled installation in the .exe?

Also, no mention of binary limitations in actual docs, despite mention in post.

Hopefully this does not come off as discouraging - this looks like a good project.

Employees don't want to ask either, but corporate made it an item in mystery shop inspections.

As far as I remember from when I last read that article, it was a police-requested MiTM by the hosting provider. LetsEncrypt did a standard challenge (requesting http://webroot/.well-known/something) and the MiTM responded appropriately. This isn't really a problem with LE - if you can control the http response to all outside servers, it's fair to say that you control the domain and should have the cert. Bad on the hosting provider for doing so? Maybe, but there is no way for LE to know.

I just read through the 65LOC source, and it's because it swaps out an active or inactive extension icon based on your active tab.

Somewhat similar experience for me- I canceled apple music today because the Linux experience is... not great. The web client has an issue where the emoji font (Noto Emoji) makes all spaces full width. There's an unofficial client called Cider, but it has issues with favoriting items. And neither web nor Cider support playing to a networked speaker.

The reasoning behind the banning of cross-server emojis in most "respectable" servers is that you can split an image into a 5x5 grid of "emoji" and post images in channels you're not supposed to. It's a mess.

You actually can, you have to preface your emoji with a backslash.

Presumably because the second to top comment links this issue, which answers your question: https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/pull/9512#issuecomm...

Have you had any problems with browsers leaking the prefixed sites, as seen here?

If you click the link in the errors it tells you what they mean.

- "Text content does not match server-rendered HTML."

- "Hydration failed because the initial UI does not match what was rendered on the server."

- "There was an error while hydrating. Because the error happened outside of a Suspense boundary, the entire root will switch to client rendering."

None of these should impact the videos, though, because the fallback (client-side rendering) should work too. So if that's causing the issue, it's because there's a larger problem enabling it.

I much doubt it. This seems like the type of thing that would take a while to set up, and that article was posted less than a week ago.

That seems more like a misconfiguration on the site owner's part; if something is designed to be read by bots/programs, they shouldn't put a challenge on it.

As a side note, uBlock Origin blocks the sponsor banner which makes sense, but also makes it so you can't see the disclosure.
